Ancient relics, if they withstand the passage of long years without decaying, can become endowed with various mystical properties under the nourishment of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and are known as Ancient Artifacts.
Among them, those with unparalleled divine might are called Divine Artifacts.
The Qian Dynasty has seven National Guardian Divine Artifacts: the Nine Heavens Profound Fire Mirror, the Thunder Sword, the Yellow Springs Palace Lamp, the Blood Weng Zhong, the Soul-Devouring Silk, the Wordless Stele, and the Demon Bone Gourd, each overseen by a different State Preceptor.
These are things ordinary people would naturally not know, but Zhang Kui, in his leisure time, had inquired clearly from Elder Huayan.
Some of these National Guardian Divine Artifacts were passed down from the Great Zhou, obtained by the Qian Court over time, while others were acquired from explorations of Ancient Secret Realms.
And this "Blood Weng Zhong" is the oldest among them.
